Alexander Clement George McGillis

Alexander Clement George McGillis aged 37 years of Assiniboia, Saskatchewan, passed away suddenly on Thursday, November 5th, 2026.

Alex was born in Moose Jaw, SK on September 23rd, 1989 to parents George and Holly McGillis.  Alex’s family were especially important to him.  He loved them very much and often would give them nicknames, as he liked to tease and joke to express his affection.

Alex grew up spending time with his parents and brother Jesse fishing and camping, which were his favourite things to do.  In the spur of the moment, he would carry on the tradition with his mom and son by saying “Let’s go fishing!” even if it was the early morning hours.  Alex also loved music and enjoyed getting lost in the words of the songs.

Alex was employed with the Town of Assiniboia, and he took great pride in his duties.  He showed his son Kingston what it meant to be a hard worker.  Kingston was everything to Alex.  He will be remembered for being a wonderful father and friend.

He was predeceased by his grandparents; father, George; and brother, Jesse.  Alex will be forever missed by his mother, Holly; son, Kingston; sister, Lora (Tron); nephews, Joseph and Nick; half-siblings: Greg, Amanda, and Ashley; the mother of his son, Ashley; stepchildren, Sierra and Scott; best friend, Matt Malfair; as well as numerous extended family and friends.

The Funeral Service will be held on Thursday, November 12th, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. at Moose Jaw Funeral Home with Pastor Marvin Seaborg officiating.  As an expression of sympathy, donation in Alex’s name may be made to MS Canada, 250 Dundas St W, Suite 500, Toronto, ON M5T 2Z5 or Diabetes Canada, 1000-170 University Ave, Toronto, ON M5H 3B3.  For those so wishing, floral arrangements may be sent to the Funeral Service.  Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane.  Cara Ashworth, Funeral Director 306-693-4550
